The walk goes south west from Pontyates, across reclaimed land, which until fairly recently was an open cast coal mine http://www.sirgaerfyrddin.gov.uk/English/leisure/countryside/Walking/Documents/Pontiets%20Walks.pdf . The trail runs adjacent to a section of the disused Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1403440 . The board is outside the garden of the Pontyates Welfare Hall.
